Socket is already bound error

[ajkessel]

I'm unable to build the latest release here on Debian ( per #45 ), but I was able to build Rotvig's patched version which appears to address the build issues at https://github.com/Rotvig/node_airtunes . Whenever I try one of the example scripts, however, I get this error:

adding device: 192.168.98.161:5000
dgram.js:165
    throw new ERR_SOCKET_ALREADY_BOUND();
    ^

Any suggestions for troubleshooting?

In my opinion, this happens to me if the same process is already running - meaning if arecord is already recording and I'd like to start a second process. Check the use of your processes I'd propose.

It happened to me when running pulseaudio parallel.
I stopped pulseaudio with
systemctl --user stop pulseaudio.socket
and then node_aitunes worked.
